i am having a problem with vue 6 .. when i open a file saved with vue 5 in vue 6 , i am having a different rendered image (the lighting is way different)??!!

why is this happening ? i mean, is there is any difference between Vue 5 and Vue 6 in the way they handle the lighting in the same file ?

any help will be appretiated.

I'm pretty sure the renderings will be different from Vue5 to Vue6...all things considered. There has been a lot of work done in the Radiosity and other render settings (including anti-aliasing as well).

?? so i have to change some setting in order to maintain the same render with 5 ?

btw this is sooo stupid ... i mean they change their software and i have to change things to get the file to render correctly !!!

Stupid, maybe. But I know this is true for many other rendering packages as well. You certainly can't take an old Lightwave 6 scene and open it up in Lightwave 9 and get the exact same rendering either.

The difference could also come from the atmosphere that was used in Vue5. Some have been updated with Vue6, check the atmosphere editor for parameter changes.

Well, I have deleted Vue5, so I can't help. But some GI atmos have definitely been altered in Vue6.

guys i figured it out .. i think the reason is that when i open vue 5 file in vue 6 the sky gain attribute set to 0 for some reason . so just set this one back to its original value (1.5 for me) and everything will be great.

thnx for the support

Have you tried to use the old scene converter that is in the cd?
"tools" dir, "old scene converter.exe"
